Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 365 Anger

The warm sunlight shone on the snow-covered ancient city walls, and city residents wearing all kinds of animal skins and pushing carts were busy back and forth under the towering city walls.

"Eternal Winter City is closer than I imagined, and the city wall is also higher than I imagined." Al, who was carrying a huge sword and wearing old plate armor, said looking at the nearly [-]-meter-high city wall in front of him.

It was also the first time for Rhodes to see such a tall city wall. The 20-meter-high city wall of Ice River City shocked him for a long time. The nearly [-]-meter-high city wall in front of him can only be described as a miracle. The productivity of this era is unlikely to create Such a wall.

"Please give this wooden board to your city defense commander, Lord Hvar. This is the news from the sentry tower in the southeast." Al pulled a young Nord dressed as a soldier next to him. He looked Only fourteen or fifteen years old, she looks very immature.

The young soldier took a look at the wooden board that Al handed over. Although he could not read, he still recognized the seal on it.

"Wait here, I'll ask my captain." He said, and then he ran to a strong middle-aged man with a fierce face and a large scar on his face not far away.

After the young soldier said something to him, the two walked towards Rhodes and the others.

"You two come with me. There may be very important military information here. I don't want you to leak the above information, so temporarily restrict your freedom." Said the middle-aged officer with a large scar on his face .

Rhodes always felt that this middle-aged man looked familiar, but he couldn't remember seeing him there.

"We didn't read what was written on it." Al said, he didn't look at the board at the time to avoid suspicion, and put it in the storage bag, and he didn't take it out to read it on the way.

Although Rhodes hadn't read it, he could roughly guess that the sentry tower must be seeking help from Eternal Winter City, hoping that they could send someone to investigate the anomaly in the southeast of the sentry tower.

It is estimated that in the end, Eternal Winter City will let a few reliable officers or nobles bring Rhodes and Al from there to go back to investigate.

As for why the captain of the sentry tower didn't directly entrust Rhodes and Al to go back to investigate, maybe they didn't have enough manpower, so Rhodes and the others rushed to pass the news first, so that Eternal Winter City could also know the situation.

"Whether you have seen it or not, you have to come with me now." The middle-aged officer frowned.

"Then let's go." Rhodes nodded. He felt that the commander of the city defense army would definitely choose to let them go back to investigate. If he saw him earlier, he would be able to perform this task earlier, and then he would be able to go to the northernmost castle earlier.

Rhodes and Al followed the middle-aged officer into the city of Eternal Winter. The city was much warmer than the outside, so the windproof ability of such a tall and thick city wall would not be bad.

"You take the two of them to the dungeon and lock them up alone." The middle-aged officer said to some elderly guards beside the city gate.

"Put us in the dungeon?" Rhodes asked loudly.

"What? Did you not obey my order?" The middle-aged officer looked at Rhodes with a sneer.

"We ran so far to help you resist the dragon, and also helped you pass the news, are you going to lock us in the dungeon?" Al asked loudly.

"Hmph, if you say one more word, believe it or not, I will kill you here?" the middle-aged officer threatened.

Rhodes was a little speechless. He didn't expect to meet such a person. The soldiers and officers in the sentry tower gave him a good impression.

But thinking about it, most of the soldiers in the Middle Ages were similar to hooligans, and in the castle to the north, humans were still fighting dragons, and those who stayed in Eternal Winter City were old people and underage people. The fact that some people stay here shows some problems.

The people Rhodes met along the way were either very old like the old guards near the city gate, or underage like the young soldier.

"I can beat you all over the ground with one hand." Al said angrily.

"Take them down." The middle-aged officer gave an order to the guards next to him, and then he slowly retreated away from Ayer, and several aged guards around him reluctantly surrounded Ayer slowly.

Rhodes on the side slammed his legs hard, rushed in front of the middle-aged officer at an unimaginable speed, punched him hard in the face, knocked him to the ground and passed out.

Rhodes was worried that he would be killed with a single punch, so he didn't use his internal strength, relying on his body's strength, and even withdrew a little bit of strength, but the middle-aged officer's face was still bloody and his cheekbones were broken.

Rhodes grabbed the back collar of the middle-aged officer on the ground with one hand and lifted him up, and picked up the wooden board that fell on the ground with the other hand.

"Lead us a way, and we will explain this to your Commander Haval." Rhodes said, looking at the guard in front of him.

"No need, I've seen all of this." An old voice came from behind Rhodes.

A strong man with gray hair and wearing black armor came in from outside the city gate, followed by several wrinkled old guards.

Rhodes threw the fainted middle-aged officer on the ground, and then threw the wooden plank in his hand to Havar who was wearing black armor.

Harvar caught the flying plank, lowered his head and began to look.

Then Rhodes walked out of the city gate, planning to go directly to the northernmost castle. It has nothing to do with him whether there is anyone here in Eternal Winter City to investigate the things in the southeast. His main purpose of coming to the north is to fight the dragon himself. , to understand their weaknesses.

Harvar reached out and grabbed Rhodes who was walking past him.

"Young adventurer, just pretend that this has never happened. I promise that I will severely punish the soldier who was knocked out by you." He said.

"As long as you're happy, I'll leave first if I have something to do." Rhodes pulled Haval's hand from his clothes, and he was really angry now.

"I have a very important thing to entrust you with." Havar reached out his hand again and grabbed Rhodes.

"Investigate what happened in the southeast, this time-consuming job should be handed over to others." Rhodes refused.

"You don't need to investigate, I want to entrust you to hunt down the alien demigod there, before it creates real turmoil." Havar said.

"Not interested, find someone else." Rhodes refused again.

"I know you want to continue going north, but the Duke has given up guarding Evernight Castle, and the next battlefield will be transferred to Everwinter City. If you don't expect to be attacked at the right time, you must take advantage of the time to kill that alien demigod." Get rid of it," Harvar continued.

"Then you can find someone else, and it's a demigod. I suspect you are borrowing a knife to kill people." Rhodes snorted coldly.

"No, I will go with you. If it is too strong to resist, I will stay behind and create a chance for you to retreat." Havar said sincerely.

Rhodes hesitated a little, he felt that he could meet that demigod before the dragon arrived in Everwinter City.

When he returns to his original world, he will also have to deal with it.

"Whether you can kill that demigod or not, I will give you a top-level combat skill and a gem worth 50 gold coins." Haval gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, I'll go with you."
